Early Bird

Not only does the early bird catch the worm but also the prettiest sunrise.
Took these this morning while everyone was still cozily tucked in bed.

New for Galison!

I'm really, really excited to show you a couple of very cool new products
available from Galison with my birdies!
Gift Notes, Thank You Notes & Magnetic Pad!

Shhhh...There's an amazing secret product from Galison that I'm ecstatic to tell you about
but I have to wait a few days until it's available online.
I've been wanting to share this with you guys for months now!

Blue Breasted

I had never been inspired by a frame until yesterday :)
Found this beautiful black oval frame in a shop & made a birdie for it
as soon as I got home. I love the design of the double mat they used.
Watercolor and acrylic ink on Fabriano. 7" x 9"

Overdyed & Embroidered

I finally got up the nerve to alter an Ikat peasant top from the Gap I hardly ever wore
and I'm so happy with it now. It's made with the softest cotton...
I overdyed it with dark indigo & embroidered the the front
with some running stitches, zig zag and red french knots.
I can't believe I didn't do this sooner. I'm looking at my closet with a newfound vision ;)

Chop, Chop, Chop!

My furry assistant & I packed up the last orders of '10 from my Etsy shop this morning.

They didn't have the regular Kraft foam-board I always use to protect the prints
so I bought black instead.

I decorated them with some of my 'Christmassy' stamps and white ink.

Here's my cute assistant taking a little break to look at the birds outside.
Thank you so much to all of you that bought my art this year!!!

Glow

Manolo helped me hang the Glow Bowls I bought from Diana Fayt's shop recently.
Love how they look against the concrete wall, specially at night with the tea lights lit.
